A long time ago (nearly 2 years) I embarked on making a terrarium themed after the game Portal.

I finally started printing pieces, and I feel inclined to show some of the prints, because this machine continues to blow me away.

comparable to the size of a quarter

This is my first print at 0.1mm with PETG and it did not disappoint!

I made the original model on tinker cad:

Ehhhh....just sayin'....I'm quite open to receiving terrarium based Christmas gifts if you want to float one this way. :lol:

Looks great! (That's some beautiful detail - I wouldn't have tried to take PETG that small.) :D
